==Tutor== Having studied at Ingolstadt, Vienna, Cracow and Paris, he returned to [[Ingolstadt]] in 1507 and in 1509 was appointed tutor to Louis and Ernest, the two younger brothers of [[William IV, Duke of Bavaria]], all three the sons of [[Albert IV, Duke of Bavaria|Albert the Wise]], the late duke of Bavaria. Aventinus retained this position until 1517, wrote a Latin grammar (''Rudimenta grammaticae latinae''; 1512) and other manuals for the use of his pupils, and in 1515 traveled in Italy with Ernest.
